Speaking of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the WSJ notes

"We should add that so far, based on the available evidence, we don't know if this spill really was a regulatory failure. But no matter, the same liberals who made oil drilling one of the most regulated activities on Earth are now busy deploring the energy bureaucracy and rearranging it so that (they promise) this will never happen again. Sound at all like the financial panic and the new re-regulatory remedy?"

Exactly. I keep waiting for the "aha!" moment to hit the left, when they realize that even government power has limits (though they continue to refer to the event as solely a failure of a private business).

Ozymandias was written for everyone. All sources of power are limited and faulty. Having the belief in your moral superiority coupled with the ability to do almost anything within your own borders does not confer immunity to this condition.

So I'll keep waiting, but won't hold my breadth.
